Bailey Hit Sacrifice Fly in 10th to Lift Giants Over D-backs and Snap 4-Game Losing Streak
The Giants led 5–3 heading into the ninth, but Geraldo Perdomo led off with a single, and then Ketel Marte – who was named a National League All-Star starter at second base earlier in the day – launched a tying homer to right off Camilo Doval for his 18th long ball of the season.
San Francisco retook the lead in the 10th on Bailey's fly ball to center after Lee advanced to third on an infield single by Heliot Ramos. Doval (4–2) worked the bottom of the 10th for the win.
San Francisco's Mike Yastrzemski went deep on the second pitch of the game, driving a fastball into the right field seats. Lee's triple drove home Wilmer Flores to make it 2–0 in the first. The Giants pushed their advantage to 3–0 in the fifth on Rafael Devers' RBI single.
Alek Thomas hit a leadoff homer to cut the deficit to 3–1, and the next three batters reached base against Landen Roupp with no outs. Lefty Erik Miller did an admirable job getting out of the jam, allowing Josh Naylor's sacrifice fly but preserving a 3–2 lead.
Arizona's Merrill Kelly gave up three runs on five hits and three walks over six innings. The right-hander struck out three.
Key moments: The D-backs' first two batters of the seventh inning reached base, but reliever Randy Rodriguez got out of the tough spot by striking out Tim Tawa and getting Naylor to ground into a double play.
Key stat: Perdomo reached base five times on three hits and two walks.
Up next: The teams wrap up the series Thursday night when the Giants send former Arizona LHP Robbie Ray (8–3, 2.75 ERA) to the mound. He'll face D-backs RHP Brandon Pfaadt (8–5, 5.38 ERA).

Dodgers' Max Muncy Injured While Tagging Out Michael A. Taylor of White Sox
Dodgers third baseman Max Muncy was injured while tagging out Michael A. Taylor in the sixth inning against the Chicago White Sox on Wednesday night. Taylor was caught stealing as catcher Will Smith threw to Muncy, who tagged Taylor for the second out of the inning. Muncy sprawled on his back as a Dodgers athletic trainer came out to check on him. He had to be helped off the field, barely able to put any weight on his left leg. The team said he had left knee pain and he will have an MRI on Thursday, manager Dave Roberts said. 'We feel optimistic,' Roberts said. 'Our hope is that it's a sprain. Obviously, for the next few days, I'm sure he'll probably be down.' A White Sox trainer checked on Taylor, who sustained a bruised left trapezius in his back and left the game. The incident occurred just before Dodgers pitcher Clayton Kershaw got his 3,000th strikeout against Vinny Capra to end the inning. 'We're all thinking about Munce right now,' Kershaw said. 'He's a huge part of our team. Made a great play there. I don't really know why he stole third like it just seemed unnecessary. I feel bad that it happened. We're all holding our breath that Muncy will be OK.'

Brewers Phenom Jacob Misiorowski Gets Tagged for 1st Time in Loss to Mets
Jacob Misiorowski made everything look so easy in his first three major league starts. Now he knows it's not. The hard-throwing rookie finally got knocked around Wednesday, serving up back-to-back homers as the Milwaukee Brewers lost 7–3 to the New York Mets in the second game of a day-night doubleheader at Citi Field. Barely touched by opposing batters since getting called up from the minors last month, Misiorowski (3-1) gave up five runs, five hits, and three walks over 3 2/3 innings in his fourth career outing. Brandon Nimmo connected for a grand slam in the second, and a slumping Francisco Lindor followed with another long ball off Misiorowski to give the Mets a 5–0 lead. 'He wasn't in sync tonight, for sure. You could see it early. He'd have it for one pitch and then you could just see the ball wasn't coming out of his fingers the same. You could see the frustration building,' Brewers manager Pat Murphy said. 'That's too good of a team and too good of a lineup. (These are) the days you realize how good these guys are – all major league players. It's so tough to perform at the highest level and be consistent. But when you're off a little bit, it can be the difference, and Miz just wasn't in sync.' A touted prospect, the 6-foot-7 Misiorowski had more than lived up to the hype since his arrival. He began his career with 11 hitless innings and then a scoreless start in a win over Pirates ace Paul Skenes before a crowd of 42,774 in Milwaukee last week. The 23-year-old right-hander carried a perfect game into the seventh June 20 at Minnesota and racked up 19 strikeouts in his first 16 big league innings. 'He has amazing stuff,' Nimmo said. Misiorowski threw 62 pitches at least one hundred mph in his first three games, and opposing batters were 3 for 49 (six percent) against him – making him the first pitcher in the modern era (since 1900) to have as many wins as hits allowed through three career starts. 'He's really good. Crazy future ahead of him,' Lindor said. 'It's going to be fun to watch him and fun to play against him.' But on this night, Misiorowski walked consecutive batters with two outs in the second and was unable to corral a high comebacker off the bat of No. 9 hitter Hayden Senger. The ball glanced off Misiorowski's glove and spun away from second baseman Brice Turang for an infield single that loaded the bases. 'There was a fastball at the bottom of the zone for a walk that I thought was there. But I thought, 'good spot,' and maybe get it up a little bit more,' Misiorowski said. 'Just frustrated at myself for not making a play.' Nimmo pulled the next pitch – a 96 mph slider – to right field for his third career slam and second this season. Lindor then drove a 1–2 fastball to right-center for his 17th home run. 'I threw good pitches and they hit 'em. Plain and simple as that,' Misiorowski said. 'I mean, you're facing the best of the best. They're getting paid what they're getting paid for a reason.' Misiorowski said his problem was mechanical. 'My fingers were just a little too far on the right side of the ball, and it kind of spun a little different than I'm used to,' he said. 'I think I came back pretty well after that. … I fixed it that next inning.' Murphy said Misiorowski didn't feel good while warming up in the bullpen, and that carried over to the game. 'His whole body was not in sync,' the manager explained. 'All the arms and legs, it's hard to sync it all up.' Misiorowski came out firing one hundred mph fastballs – touching 102 mph against Lindor in the first inning – but it didn't last. 'He learned his lesson. He's ticked about it. Even some of the sequencing, he's ticked about,' Murphy said. 'He can see it, that there's just a really fine line between being dominant and being just OK.' Misiorowski, however, won't dwell on this disappointment. 'It's done. Use the old Tiger Woods approach and move on to the next hit. Move on to the next pitch. It is what it is. I got a loss, but oh well,' he said. 'It's frustrating. But at the same time, like, young career, it's good figuring it out now. Not when we're in the playoffs and it matters most.'

Dodgers Rally Past White Sox In 9th Inning; Kershaw Reaches 3,000 Strikeouts
Clayton Kershaw got his 3,000th strikeout, and Freddie Freeman capped a three-run ninth inning by singling in Shohei Ohtani, lifting the Los Angeles Dodgers over the Chicago White Sox 5–4 on Wednesday night. Kershaw became the 20th pitcher to reach 3,000 when Vinny Capra took a slider for a called third strike for the final out of the sixth inning. Los Angeles trailed 4–2 and hadn't scored since the second inning when Michael Conforto singled and Tommy Edman and Hyesong Kim drew back-to-back walks from Grant Taylor (0–1) to open the ninth. Ohtani hit into a run-scoring forceout, Mookie Betts tied the score with a sacrifice fly off Steven Wilson, and Freeman singled sharply to right. Los Angeles won for the 14th time in 17 games and clinched its seventh straight series victory. Andrew Benintendi had a two-out RBI single in the first. Will Smith tied the score in the bottom half against Sean Burke with his 11th homer, and Andy Pages led off the second with his 17th homer. Austin Slater hit a two-run homer in the third for a 3–2 lead, and Edgar Quero added a flare RBI single. Key moment: Dodgers third baseman Max Muncy was injured while tagging out Michael A. Taylor in the sixth. Taylor was caught stealing as catcher Will Smith threw to Muncy, who tagged Taylor for the second out of the inning. Muncy sprawled on his back as a Dodgers athletic trainer came out to check on him. The team said he had left knee pain. A White Sox trainer also checked on Taylor, who sustained a bruised left trapezius in his back. Key stat: Kershaw threw a season-high 100 pitches, giving up four runs and nine hits in six innings. He struck out Miguel Vargas in the third and Lenyn Sosa in the fifth. Up next: White Sox RHP Aaron Civale (1–4, 4.74 ERA) starts the series finale Thursday. Dodgers RHP Dustin May (4–5, 4.68) faces Chicago for the first time in his career.
